Professional Logo Design - Adobe Illustrator cs6 (ExTract) Video Lecture | How to Design a Logo in Adobe Illustrator: For Beginners and Beyond

hey guys welcome to another exciting
tutorial of creating process in this
video we will design this logo if we
look at this there is a to text a nd
which has been placed in a slightly
prospective way but their important
thing we have noticed is that their
thickness is very less but what's very
certain height and later on this text
has been pleased according to the
perspective view of this logo so to
create this logo with first I use D
rounded rectangle tool and left-click
your mouse button in crew make their
width around 100 and height to around
hundred and the corner radius to be 10
and okay after that removed their color
and fill this with stroke color no
change the color to lighter gray little
bit lighter gray and after that with the
line segment tool from the center draw
out a horizontal line like this and
select both the object would object
expand and click ok so this will convert
this whole stuff into object form after
that we'll draw out a rectangle over
here and select this motion both of them
go to Pathfinder to go through that with
good windows Pathfinder and after that
just subtracted and select this object
reduce their length now next I was to
create the teletrac tee so select this
object with all drag duplicate this
place it there duplicate one more time
by dragging it out and place it there
ensure that there they are on the same
line and after that with your line
segment tool again from here draw out a
vertical line till this now fill this
with the same color now select all the
three object go to object expand and
click OK after that everything will be
converted into object form now group
this up everything ctrl G bring this
here and scale it down a little bit
now now our next step is to selecting
affecting this object go to effect 3d
extrude and bevel this is the tool we
are going to use so we will just preview
it change the angle now reduce the
thickness depth that is extrude that to
around 30 you can see that if it's large
you can reduce it let's keep this 26 and
you can check it out okay and after that
just play with the perspective you saw
paint the angle maintain this you have
to ensure that that this line is
perpendicular so with this angle just
adjust the line this should be line
perpendicular okay and after that make
sure they are looking in their
perspective we were correct so just keep
on adjusting it okay and make sure this
line always perpendicular and after that
click OK
so you have done that go to object after
that convert is an object want to do
that we'll go to expand appearance and
this will be in object form now ungroup
this for two times and everything will
be separated after that our next step is
to do some certain adjustments so select
this portion this portion combined it
now select this one this one and alt and
drag to duplicated and please sit over
there like this and after that you can
delete this portion we don't need this
you can delete this part also and select
this portion this portion and divide it
this will divide everything now ungroup
this delete this portion in the same way
we will select this portion and just
shift a little bit forward till here so
and keep that they are on the same line
so just drag maintaining the line place
it there and just keep on maintaining
the line and after that place it there
now next step select everything this
this portion divided ungroup this and
delete everything this they like this
now you can delete this portion this
portion this portion which are showing
the Tecna
we don't need the thickness watch delete
this part this part and this part after
that select the lower this portion
combine it we want this portion to be
one objects to select everything
combined it now this object is only one
object our next step is to delete this
thickness portion and after that we need
something to be done here so to do that
we'll just select this portion and
shifted little bit there because it's
very close so when dealing the line we
just shift it there and just to select
this portion duplicate it and place it
in such a way that they are will their
lines this edges are will helping each
other so just due to some certain
adjustment place it there and after that
select everything divided now after
division and grope this up and delete
this portion you can delete this portion
now the thickness part because we don't
need this thickness we need only the
surfaces the latest portion the lies
this one and now we are only left with
this piece so to get around overall are
I think are almost design is ready you
have to see there's gaps should be
constant so if you see that they're
constant there take gap between the two
objects are not equal everywhere just
keep on adjusting it so select this
portion just shift this little bit
upward and I think this is good this one
a little bit upward
it is on this good now this one is good
fine
now after that select everything fill it
with some soothing color like some
certain dark color that can be visible
now now our next step is to create the
text which should be in the same
perspective so to do that we'll just
duplicate these two times so place it
there maintain their edges are placed
properly and after that duplicate it one
more time do the same thing now select
both the pieces combined it and with the
delete Anchor Point to delete out all
the anchor points which is in between so
you can just click right out and it will
be automatically deleted now change the
color to a little bit of light gray and
press ctrl T to lock this object so the
next step is to type the text so with
the text tool type out or text that is
x-tra City extract convert this into
object form go to object expand and
click OK after that scale this up
because it's too small now please sit
there in such a way that this corner is
same is pleased like this and this
should be here so scale it up little bit
until it's not matching you have to just
keep on scaling up okay
okay so once you get that you just place
it there again and now next thing is to
go to object envelop the store and make
with mesh here keep rowing column 1 1
you can preview that only the one for
points will be there or click OK now
with the directions the direct selection
tool you can independently play with the
vertices so just drag it down place it
properly manually here like this and
after that just adjust this curve it
should be parallel to this line so keep
on doing it the handle should be
properly selected and kept parallel to
these box which have we have created for
our reference so do it exactly and do
the same thing for the last piece
and after that just do some little more
adjustment so that they are
perpendicular to this view and after
that after completed there you can
delete this portion to remove that ctrl
alt to delete it and you can shift this
little bit outside so that we can have
some certain gap here so just let it
give some certain gap and after that so
like this object go to object expand and
click okay so this will be convert into
object form now fill it with the same
color here and everything will be
perfect now group this up ctrl G
duplicate this ctrl c ctrl F and bring
it little bit downward you can a little
bit move it a little bit of with certain
gap and after that reduce the opacity to
around 40% draw one more rectangle over
it select the rectangle and the lower
piece go to transparency make mask and
after that selecting the misc make mask
layer go to gradient and apply the white
and gray gradient and just just add just
agreed in color it will create some
shadow effect reflection after getting
that you can just go to a good
transparency and select this object form
so that you can again select the object
objects now reduce the opacity if it's
very high so around 30 and after that
group this off control G and scale it up
and your design is almost ready
but the only thing you need is to place
it in proper place and just export it
out so this is the design we have got we
have used the same tools which we have
used earlier but used it in a very
innovative way hope you enjoyed the
